An Ottawa man pleaded guilty to murdering an Overland Prak woman in 2016. 25-year-old Korrey Rinke gave the plea in Johnson County District Court yesterday to first-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping of Julianna Pappas. Pappas was reported missing by her roommate on August 22nd, 2016. Her body was found August 31st, 2016 in a wooded area south of W, 115th between Switzer road and Indian Creek Parkway in Overland Park.
When police first spoke to Rinke they claim he seemed nervous and denied that Pappas was in his car, then admitted she was in his car. Police say, “He told us that he and Pappas had been driving around together and purchased alcohol.” According to the affidavit, he told police they were going to have sex but when she learned he did not have a condom, she said no. Rinke then admitted to police that he forced her to have sex and killed her. Sentencing for Rinke is scheduled to take place at 11 a.m. on September 12th in Johnson County.
